The Summer Pavilion


This is a detail of part of the roof of the Summer Pavilion, seen against the clear blue sky. This victorian gingerbread marvel, is located behind the Parliament buildings in Ottawa. It was originally built in 1877, and in 1956 after being in disrepair, it was demolished. Then in 1993 it was rebuilt as a national police memorial. It is a gorgeous building, and I would love to show you all of it, but this photograph is actually more about the colors of the sky, than it is about the pavilion. Please click on this image to see a larger one, with TWICE the color saturation!
